Listener 4841 Offhand Remark By Remus

[upsetter]

A pleasant enough entry level Listener where the only challenge was our utter lack of knowledge of the theme.

Well constructed but the clues were mostly too simple.

[emcee]

I agree with all upsetter says. I, too, have very limited knowledge of the theme.

Thanks, Remus. 

[Philoctetes]

The theme didn't help that much anyway. A single-sitting puzzle, that kept me going till I had finished it. Enjoyable, but none too taxing

[HawkCrossword]

Agreed - a fine entry-level puzzle, but not without some interesting grid entries and a sprinkling of very neat clues, as you'd expect from one half of the setting team. To be picky, there wasn't really anything in this that we haven't seen before, and it would have been nice to find an extra dimension to the endgame to suit the theme.  Fun to complete, though. Thanks, Remus.

[Cruncher]

Spent most of my time trying to pinpoint the omitted letters to tease out the hint, having already completed the grid and made the required alteration.

Likewise not my specialist subject but a nice rest from some of the tougher offerings. Presume we are expecting another numerical in a couple of weeks?

[perseverer]

Overall it might have been on the easy side, but I thought some of the clue parsing was really clever and quite tricky. Thanks, Remus.

Yes, numerical in two weeks if pattern adhered to.
